I have a pet Mallard named Gertrude. She is 1 year, 2 months, and 11 days old. She lives indoors. She hasn't laid an egg yet. She even stopped doing her little squat, flatten out the body, and derp derp derp thing. Which I was told she was just going through sexual maturation. But she hasn't...
No picture available. He is a Red Cochin Roo. I picked him up when I got a set of chicks from the school last year. He is a little over a year old. He is a little aggressive, has lived through Fowl Pox, (completely cured). He just needs to go away. I don't want to sell him, I WILL pay for...
Hey everybody. This is Sylvia, the Silver Laced Wyandotte:
She's hanging out in my room right now. Ignore the totally awesome Pokemon stuff. Anyway, before you jump to any conclusions, I better explain her story.
Sylvia is four months old. She was born totally normal, with her sisters...
Hi... I finally got worried enough. My two oddest birds in the coop: Ursula: a ten pound previously healthy Cuckoo Maran, and Marla: a half breed of game bird and chicken, have gotten... ill?
They are both broken out on the comb, wattles and face. They're... odd. Hard, yellow, no bleeding, no...
I come home from a five day trip, and discover Gertrude my Mallard Duck has a swelling on the underside of her bill. It's hot and squisy, and is about the size of a marble. She's just under a year old. She's quacking fine, and wandering around. And she's eating and drinking. I don't have a vet...
Hi everyone. Got another problem. It's been going on for a couple months, but, seeing as I've raised chickens for 7 years, and a duck for only 8 months, I guess I'd better ask...
Meet Gertrude the rescue Mallard. Gertrude lives inside with me. For a couple months now, Gertrude has, in middle...
I have a one year old yellow Buff Orpington named Cyndi. For the past few days, she has done nothing but yawn. And it's odd. She stretches her head up, closes her eyes, and opens her beak as wide as she can. She won't stand up and is rather thin now. Anything I can do for her? She's not really...
Hi everyone! I've got a problem... I own a female Mallard named Gertrude. Gertrude lives in the house, because my chickens are bullies. She was all fine and dandy ten minutes ago, until I realized that she was bleeding. The source was from her foot. She had ripped off one of her toenails. It's...
I own a five month old Mallard duck, and she was fooling around near my craft station. I heard her briefly chew something. Is there anything I can do if she did swallow a safety pen? It's my little bitty less than an inch long ones.
Hey Everyone... Not doing great. It's been a while, but I finally got the strength I needed to post this. Ebony passed away in my lap on July 27th 2011 at 8:03 PM. Um... I'll post the only photo I have of her later. She got a very pretty auburn/black mixed back, and a puffy tan chest. The time I...
No other apparent symptoms. Just an icky, very mucousy sneeze. She swallows every time she sneezes. Should I be worried? Gertrude is seven to eight weeks old. Mallard.
My specialty is chickens, not ducks. So when a family friend finds a 2-3 day old duckling trying to cross the highway, she takes it to me. I love Gertrude, but I don't know much about her. Her wings are odd, and I'm getting worried. Is is Angel wing? My feed bag says to feed her this food for 18...
